Introduction: Cladosporium Link (LINK 1816) is one of the largest genera of hyphomycetes, comprising 759 names, and also one of the most heterogeneous ones, which is not very surprising since all early circumscriptions and delimitations from similar gen- era were rather vague and imprecise (FRIES 1832, 1849; SACCARDO 1886; LINDAU 1907, etc.). All kinds of superficially similar cladosporioid fungi, i.e., amero- to phragmosporous dematiaceous hyphomycetes with conidia formed in acropetal chains, were assigned to Cladosporium s. lat., ranging from saprobes to plant pathogens as well as human-pathogenic taxa. DE VRIES (1952) and ELLIS (1971, 1976) maintained broad concepts of Cladosporium. ARX (1983), MORGAN-JONES & JACOBSEN (1988), MCKEMY & MORGAN-JONES (1990), MORGAN-JONES & MCKEMY (1990) and DAVID (1997) discussed the heterogeneity of Cladosporium and con- tributed towards a more natural circumscription of this genus. DAVID (1997) car- ried out detailed examinations of the conidiogenous loci and conidial hila of Cladosporium (incl. Heterosporium Klotzsch ex Cooke) species by means of SEM microscopy and showed that true species of the latter genus are confined to anamorphs of mycosphaerella-like ascomycetes with a unique scar type. The protuberant conidiogenous loci (scars) and conidial hila are characterised by having a central convex dome surrounded by a raised (coronate) rim. Molecular examinations of cladosporioid fungi, carried out during the course of the past decade, proved the heterogeneity of Cladosporium s. lat. and confirmed the ap- 2 Schlechtendalia 11 (2004) proach of DAVID (1997), restricting this genus to species with coronate conidiogenous loci, and which are, as far as known, anamorphs of mycosphaerella- like ascomycetes. BRAUN et al. (2003) provided results of comprehensive ITS se- quence analyses of cladosporioid fungi, summarised outcomes of molecular ex- aminations published by other authors and discussed phylograms of cladosporium-like fungi in detail. Human-pathogenic cladophialophora-like hyphomycetes [Herpotrichiellaceae], Sorocybe resinae (Fr.) Fr. (Amorphotheca resinae Parbery) [Amorphothecaceae], Alternaria malorum (Rühle) U. Braun, Crous & Dugan (≡ Cladosporium malorum Rühle) [Pleosporaceae] and cladosporioid Venturia Sacc. anamorphs (Fusicladium Bonord.) [Venturiaceae] formed separate monophyletic clades and could be excluded from Cladosporium s. str. Within a big clade formed by members of the Mycosphaerellaceae, species with anamorphs belonging to the genus Cladosporium s. str. were shown to represent a sister clade to Mycosphaerella Johanson s. str. (with cercosporoid anamorphs). The teleomorph genus Davidiella Crous & U. Braun was proposed for species with anamorphs in Cladosporium s. str. The results of these examina- tions led to a reassessment and new phylogenetic circumscription of Cladospo- rium s. str. Now we are confronted with the challenge of ascertaining the true generic affinity of hundreds of names assigned to Cladosporium and compiling a comprehensive monograph of the genus. The following annotated list is a first step towards a monograph of Cladosporium. List of names This list encompasses names from SACCARDO (1882–1972), KIRK (1985), ‘Botanischer Jahresbericht’ (Vol. 1, for 1873, to 10, for 1882) and ‘Just´s Botanischer Jahresbericht’ (Vol. 11, for 1883, to 63, for 1935), OUDEMANS (1919–1924), ‘Petrak´s Lists’ (1920– 1939), ‘A Supplement to Petrak´s List’ (1920–1939), ‘Index of Fungi’ (1940–2003), ‘Index Fungorum’ (http://www.indexfungorum.org/Names/Names.asp), plus names from other sources. All taxa which have been put into Cladosporium are alphabeti- cally arranged, independent of their nomenclatural status as valid, invalid, legiti- mate, illegitimate or herbarium names. [If a name was found in herbarium or other records, but no place of publication is recorded, the specific epithet is also placed in alphabethical order within the list, along with the name of the author if known and the source of the name (herbarium label, catalog, etc.)]. The name of the genus (Cladosporium) is omitted except for synonyms in Cladosporium. The list provides citations for original descriptions, types, synonyms, important redescriptions, commentaries and illustrations by subsequent authors. The names of authors and their abbreviations follow KIRK (2003), and those of periodicals are from LAWRENCE et al. (1968) and BRIDSON & SMITH (1991). Original data for the types (primarily in Latin, French, German or Italian) are translated into English. Other highly pertinent data or comments excerpted from SACCARDO (l.c.), ‘Index of Fungi’ and other sources are usually presented unaltered in original languages. Type specimens and ex-type cultures are noted as such when possible. Abbrevia- tions of herbaria follow HOLMGREN et al. (1990) and abbreviations of culture col- DUGAN, SCHUBERT & BRAUN: Check-list of Cladosporium names 3 lections are from JONG et al. (1996). Names confirmed as applicable to Cladospo- rium s. str. and the current, accepted names for synonyms and excluded taxa are printed in bold. Host range and distribution data are only given for species of the latter category (if more specimens and records than the type collection are known). Inconsistencies and mistakes in the quotation of names and references have often been encountered in the original publications inspected. Therefore, we have tried to examine the original papers whenever possible. (These inspected original publications are marked by ‘!’).

  • Multigene Phylogenies Reveal That Red Band Needle Blight of Pinus Is Caused by Two Distinct Species of Dothistroma, D
    STUDIES IN MYCOLOGY 50: 551–565. 2004. Multigene phylogenies reveal that red band needle blight of Pinus is caused by two distinct species of Dothistroma, D. septosporum and D. pini Irene Barnes1*, Pedro W. Crous2, Brenda D. Wingfield1 and Michael J. Wingfield1 1Department of Genetics, Forestry and Agricultural Biotechnology Institute (FABI), University of Pretoria, Pretoria, South Africa, 0002; 2 Centraalbureau voor Schimmelcultures (CBS), Fungal Biodiversity Centre, P.O. Box 85167, 3508 AD Utrecht, The Netherlands *Correspondence: I. Barnes, [email protected] Abstract: The red band needle blight fungus, Dothistroma septosporum is a widely distributed pathogen of many pine species. Three morphological varieties of this pathogen have been described based on differences in conidial length. However, contro- versy exists as to whether spore size represents an adequate characteristic to distinguish between forms of D. septosporum. The aim of this investigation was to consider the phylogenetic relationships between D. septosporum isolates from different coun- tries. An additional objective was to determine whether comparisons of DNA sequence data support the morphological varie- ties recognized for this species. DNA from portions of the nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS), !-tubulin and elongation factor 1- genes were sequenced and analysed for isolates from 13 different countries representing five continents. Results show that isolates of the pathogen encompass two divergent lineages representing distinct phylogenetic species. One phylogenetic species (Lineage I) is found worldwide, while the other (Lineage II), is restricted to the North-Central U.S.A. The names D. pini and D. septosporum are available for these species. The former name should apply to the phylogenetic species currently known only from the United States.

Charlton 2 ABSTRACT Venturia effusa, cause of pecan scab, is the most prevalent disease of pecan in the southeastern USA; epidemics of the disease regularly result in economic losses to the pecan industry. Recent characterization of the mating type distribution revealed the frequency of the MAT idiomorphs are in equilibrium at various spatial scales, indicative of regular sexual recombination. However, the occurrence of the sexual stage of V. effusa has never been observed, and the pathogen was previously believed to rely entirely on asexual reproduction.

    DEVELOPMENT OF RAPID IN VITRO ASSAYS AND CURRENT STATUS OF FUNGICIDE SENSITIVITY IN THE PECAN SCAB PATHOGEN FUSICLADIUM EFFUSUM by MURAT SEYRAN (Under the supervision of KATHERINE STEVENSON and TIMOTHY BRENNEMAN) ABSTRACT Isolates of F. effusum from three baseline orchards in Georgia were tested for sensitivity using a mycelial growth assay in microtiter plates. The 50% effective dose (EC50) values were estimated for azoxystrobin, dodine, fentin hydroxide, and propiconazole. The role of alternative oxidase inhibitors salicylhydroxamic acid and propyl gallate in quinone outside inhibitor assays also was evaluated. Both chemicals were found to be toxic to F. effusum and therefore were not used in the assays. A more rapid assay was developed based on conidial germination and micro- colony growth. Isolates of F. effusum from 35 commercial orchards were profiled using the new assay and in vitro resistance to fentin hydroxide, dodine, thiophanate-methyl, propiconazole, and azoxystrobin was detected in 20, 4, 6, 21, and 19 of the 35 orchards respectively. Taxonomy of F. effusum in the family Venturiaceae was supported based on the sequenced cytochrome b gene.

  • Microscopic Examination of Race-Specific Resistance to Pecan Scab from the 2001 Southeastern Pecan Growers Association Meeting
    Microscopic Examination of Race-specific Resistance to Pecan Scab From the 2001 Southeastern Pecan Growers Association Meeting Patrick J. Conner University of Georgia, Horticulture Department, Coastal Plain Experiment Station, Tifton GA. 31794. Introduction Pecans are attacked by a wide range of disease and insect pests causing substantial losses to the crop. In the humid growing conditions of the southeastern United States, the most economically damaging of these is pecan scab, caused by the fungus Cladosporium caryigenum. Scab infection reduces both yield and quality of pecan kernels, and if uncontrolled can result in total crop loss. Many important high quality cultivars are becoming increasingly susceptible to the scab pathogen. Two such cultivars, 'Stuart' and 'Desirable', comprise over one half of Georgia's total pecan acreage. This increasing susceptibility has often been attributed to the increased prevalence of once rare races of scab that are able to infect these cultivars. Demaree and Cole (1929) were the first to demonstrate pathogenic races of scab. They demonstrated that when inoculum was taken from one cultivar and used to inoculate young leaves of the same cultivar and a different cultivar that a heavy infection was found on the original host and a light or no infection on the other. Converse (1960) found evidence for the presence of at least 4 races in Oklahoma using single-spore isolates and greenhouse inoculations. In order to help achieve our goal of producing new scab-resistant cultivars, we have been investigating the resistance of cultivars to different scab isolates. This work has centered around obtaining genetically pure strains of the scab fungus and testing them for virulence on different pecan cultivars.

Therefore, the objective of this work was to analyze the potential antagonist and in vitro effect of volatile metabolites of Trichodermaspp. On Cladosporium spp. isolated from pecan leaf spots. Three Cladosporium spp. isolates and two commercial products based on Trichodermaspp. were used, as well as an isolate of the same genus provided by the ‘ElocyMinussi’ Laboratory of Phytopathology at UFSM. Cladosporium spp. mycelial growth was monitored in order to evaluate the morphological characteristics of the pathogen. The use of Trichoderma spp. as biocontrol was assessed through dual culture tests and production of volatile metabolites. Trichoderma spp. showed positive results in inhibiting the growth of Cladosporium spp., thereby presenting potential to be used as a biocontrol agent.

BMC Genomics 2014, 15:213 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/15/213 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Secretome weaponries of Cochliobolus lunatus interacting with potato leaf at different temperature regimes reveal a CL[xxxx]LHM - motif Bengyella Louis1,2,3*, Sayanika Devi Waikhom1, Pranab Roy4*, Pardeep Kumar Bhardwaj5, Mohendro Wakambam Singh1, Sailendra Goyari1,6, Chandradev K Sharma1 and Narayan Chandra Talukdar1* Abstract Background: Plant and animal pathogenic fungus Cochliobolus lunatus cause great economic damages worldwide every year. C. lunatus displays an increased temperature dependent-virulence to a wide range of hosts. Nonetheless, this phenomenon is poorly understood due to lack of insights on the coordinated secretome weaponries produced by C. lunatus under heat-stress conditions on putative hosts. To understand the mechanism better, we dissected the secretome of C. lunatus interacting with potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) leaf at different temperature regimes. Results: C. lunatus produced melanized colonizing hyphae in and on potato leaf, finely modulated the ambient pH as a function of temperature and secreted diverse set of proteins. Using two dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-D) and mass spectrometry (MS) technology, we observed discrete secretomes at 20°C, 28°C and 38°C. A total of 21 differentially expressed peptide spots and 10 unique peptide spots (that did not align on the gels) matched with 28 unique protein models predicted from C.

  • A Climatic Approach to Pecan Scab Control
    among growing seasons and was especially high in the early 1990s compared to the 1980s. The upsurge in scab has been due mainly to climate changes from dry in most of the 1980s to wet beginning in 1989, Severe rains during Summer 1994 caused flooding of such magnitude that the southern half of Georgia was declared a national A Climatic Approach disaster area, These environmental conditions pro- vided a unique opportunity to evaluate scab devel- to Pecan Scab opment in different orchards under a variety of Control scab management practices, The objective of this study was to analyze variations in scab control programs among and within orchards, with regard to scab incidence, as bases for developing a better Darrell Sparks1 scab control strategy, Background Tissue age vs. scab susceptibility. Pecan Additional index words, Cladosporium leaves are susceptible to scab when young or caryigenum, Orbit, SuperTin, fungicide, immature, but not when mature (Gottwald, 1985). leaf wetness, temperature The leaf is mature once expansion is completed, about 6 weeks after budbreak for an individual leaf (Davis and Sparks, 1974) and about 2 weeks later for the shoot as a whole. Foliar scab is often limited to the more terminal leaves, which develop during Summary. Pecan ( Carya illinoinensis) the last half of the leaf-expansion period.
